What do today's teens call someone they think of as clumsy and strupid?

I am writing a story and need a teenage boy, after speaking gibberish to a cute girl to say, "She must think I am a ___________"

    Ok, firstly, you're making a judgment on 'teens' by just some kids you saw outside of a library. There will always be the kids who do stupid things and get themselves in trouble. Their way of coping with it, is being idiots about it. I bet when you were a teen there were kids just like that, so don't go grouping it with just 'teens' these days, because regardless; some are just that way. Another thing, not all teens are like that. Stealing isn't cool, and some people do it because they can't afford to buy it. So instead of telling their friends that, they say that it's cool. Not that it's any excuse, of course. But it's not just because stealing is 'cool'. Lastly, you can get kicked out of places as a teen for various reasons. You don't even really have to do anything. Granted, some are just obviously wanting to get into trouble. But others who make mistakes, get the punishments because of those people. So don't go grouping all of them together because it's unfair, and inaccurate.
